Hello my lovelies,
My Carrera Virago T.T (road bike) is getting a little loose on the headstock and am wanting to replace it. I cannot find any spec listings for my bike now (think it is a 2008 model).
The last time I did one was on my Raleigh Lizard. How the feck do I decide which size and type mine is (after seeing the plethora of varying types available online)?
Mucho thanks. ____________________ My fingers smell of your mum. |

Ok, I guess I need a look-see and find out just what I have.
I'll report back........... ____________________ My fingers smell of your mum. |

Work was quiet so I popped to the bike shed, undone the 2 pinch bolts and went to undo the main one........oh, it's loose already? ? ?
Tighten it all back up and it feels lovely now.

That does make logical sense and is the way I tightened it back up. Felt like a different bike on the way home.
